Myths About Organic Food
Organic food is not a passing fad, it is here to stay. And it has soon developed the position of a raging trend. Anything that is a trend develops many myths around it. Naturally, organic foods too have grown a halo of myths; most of which are untrue. Most people do not know what is the essence of eating this kind of food. They only associate it with an unrelated cluster of words like 'fresh', 'nutritious' and 'natural'.

Thus their meat is not contaminated by chemicals or toxins.
Anything green is organic: It is like saying anything that glitters is gold. But the proverb forewarns us. Organic foods are usually marked by a quality assurance agency. This agency varies from country to country. Find out which is the concerned body of certification in your country and look for their mark on the food you are buying.
